Qara - Digital Mandala Meditation

Create living mandalas with your fingertips, find peace in the process

** The Ancient Art of Mandala, Reimagined

Qara transforms the centuries-old practice of mandala meditation into an interactive digital
experience. Just as Tibetan monks create sand mandalas grain by grain, you create flowing
particle mandalas with each gentle touch - watching them form, evolve, and gracefully fade away.

** What is Mandala Meditation?

Mandala creation has been used for thousands of years as a meditation technique. The repetitive,
symmetrical patterns help focus the mind, release stress, and access deeper states of
consciousness. Qara brings this sacred practice to your fingertips, allowing you to:

- Draw to Focus: Each stroke creates perfectly symmetrical patterns, training your mind to find
center
- Watch to Meditate: Observe as your mandala evolves and fades, teaching impermanence
- Create to Heal: The act of creation itself becomes a form of moving meditation

**Mandala Features:

Sacred Geometry Controls
- Symmetry Points (1-10): Create traditional mandala symmetries from simple circles to complex
10-point stars
- Spiral Patterns: Add sacred spiral elements found in nature and spiritual art
- Mirror Mode: Enable perfect reflection for enhanced mandala balance

Meditative Elements
- Life Time: Control how long your mandala persists - practice letting go as it fades
- Fade Speed: Adjust the dissolution rate for different meditation experiences
- Auto Play: Let mandalas create themselves for passive meditation sessions

Mindful Color Palettes
- Flow: Dynamic colors that shift like thoughts in meditation
- Mono: Minimalist grayscale for deep focus
- Ocean: Calming blues for emotional balance
- Sunset: Warm tones for heart-centered practice

** How to Practice Mandala Meditation with Qara:

1. Set Your Intention: Choose your symmetry and colors based on your current needs
2. Touch and Create: Let your intuition guide your finger movements
3. Observe Without Attachment: Watch your mandala form and dissolve
4. Find Your Center: The symmetrical patterns naturally draw your awareness inward
5. Release and Repeat: Each new touch is a fresh beginning

- Provides a creative outlet for emotional expression
- No cleanup or materials needed - pure meditation

** From the Artist:
"As a media artist, I've discovered that the process of creating digital mandalas can be as
profound as traditional methods. Qara is my offering to those seeking peace through creation.
Each mandala you draw is unique, temporary, and perfect in its imperfection - just like each
moment of life."
